Fig. 9 The implant sample<br />

The focused 2D and 3D images of the original<br />

tooth sample are observed by means of the digital<br />

<strong>microscope</strong>. These images were both quantitatively<br />

analyzed and also were evaluated in terms of the surface<br />

roughness using the digital <strong>microscope</strong> software.<br />

of the tooth sample and assessed 3D image of the<br />

implant tooth sample using the scanned 3D image<br />

In this experimental study, roughness measurements<br />

of dental applications were carried out with a<br />

stylus profilometer and a digital <strong>microscope</strong>. Measurements<br />

were repeated for five measurement points<br />

with 1mm intervals on an original tooth, its implant<br />

and other three test implant samples. Each measurement<br />

point taken from both stylus profilometer and<br />

digital <strong>microscope</strong> represent the mean values.<br />

As a non-contact measurement method, the white light<br />

3D scanning system (Steinbichler COMET 5) with the<br />

advantage of measuring fragile and delicate nontechnical<br />

objects was used to capture 3D models and<br />

then make an assessment by measuring the difference<br />

in three axes X, Y and Z (Fig. 12 and Fig.13).<br />

its implant and other three test implant samples<br />

The target is to produce the original tooth analogue<br />

with the implant in order to fulfil successful results on<br />

the patients. Therefore the roughness measurement as
